What are people using for antivirus with Domino 64-bit running on Windows 2003 64-bit?
Symantec, McAfee and Trend Micro state they support only support Domino 32-bit on Windows 2003 64-bit.
There aren’t any clear answers when I searched the forum archive.
We have antivirus on our spam appliance at the email gateway, but we are concerned with users who use iNotes and the possibility of uploading infected attachments.
Subject: Antivirus for Domino 64-bit?
At the moment ther are the following problems by using domino 64 bit server:
All backup software vendors only support the following configs:
OS 32 Bit & Domino 32 Bit
OS 64 Bit & Domino 64 Bit
NOT supportet is OS 64 Bit and Domino 32 Bit!
The view on antivirus solutions is tatally diffrent:
Trend Micro and Symantec support:
OS 32 Bit & Domino 32 Bit
OS 64 Bit 6 Domino 32 Bit
NOT supportet is OS 64 Bit & Domino 64 Bit!
Both campanys will bring Q2/2009 a new version (Beta) which will support OS 64 Bit & Domino 64 Bit!
We checked 11 antivoirus vendors and all jave the same answere - Will be supportet in 2nd half of 2009! Most of them didn´ know that there is an native 64 bit domino server avaible! Bad information politics by IBM i think!
Subject: Well it is a simple answer to a customer too…
no, I am not in the know. But 64 Bit Domino was clearly visible last Lotusphere. I would have expected a (every!) third party vendor for those products to be there.
=> if those names of this vendors would be puplic, I would love to see their comment, to decide which ones to not considder in the next years
